Davester,
I don't know about the toaster ovens you have but they aren't necessarily zero clearance items. A quick glance at some of the manuals provided by Black and Decker for their toaster ovens dictates allowing a clearance of X amount of space.
Some of the newer models are designed so that you must allow clearance. For example, the Black and Decker Convection oven my wife and I have has a doojigger on the back of it that sticks out at least two or so inches. So, you have no choice but to allow clearance.
I'd absolutely allow for clearance even if the manual doesn't suggest it in the safety precautions. It's common sense.
